Rendezvous 2007

Rendezvous

Friday I spent the day with my friend Jenifer at a festival in Prairie du Chien...the Rendezvous. It was a fantastic day. We swam in the Wisconin river, grilled, and went to this interesting festival modeled after the fur trading days. It was very authentic and there was some good shopping. I picked up a fabulous beaver skin and a red fox tail. The aligator heads were so tempting but Jenifer talked me out of it, I mean, where would I really wear it? You all know I'm just kidding. I got some nice earrings, a ceramic frog and a beaded medallion. I will definitely check this out next year. It's so refreshing to know that these ideas still exist. A world without plastic, where fur is hip, where people still work with their hands and cook with wood fires...the women wear little leather skirts, the men throw tomahawks at trees, wearing the same...

How does your garden grow?

My garden is in full effect...The lillies are such show offs! The lupine is still in the competition but the orange lillies in the sunlight are hard to beat.

10 Year Reunion

Welcome back friends!

After a long hiatus, I'm back in the blogging business.

I just returned from the hometown in Minnesota. It was one big blast from the past. I attended my 10 yr class reunion. I can't imagine how it's been 10 years, but the math is right. It was at a golf course. At one point, a guy pulled a grill out of his pick up truck and grilled his steak which was too rare. That was funny. There was all the elements of a good Annandale party...a drinking game, a lost earring, girls kissing, shots of tequila, lots of fun had by all...

Pictures too. check back for more.
